Marcus Vick- Hit the road jack, dontcha come back......

"Vick should be kicked off the team. Plain and simple. I guess it shows that colleges will over look things for the star player. That is sad."

Alerted by a comment from Mandy, I see Virginia Tech has made the right move. From the RTD.

Tech President Charles Steger announced in a school-issued release Friday that Vick "has been permanently dismissed from the Hokie football program due to a cumulative effect of a legal infractions and unsportsmanlike play."

Good move Tech! I guess I could be converted to a Hokie fan. Lets hope this will set a standard for players. Va. Tech gave Vick too many chances to begin with and that is what got them to the point they are at. Vick was a thug and Tech allowed it. It took his actions in the game for them to understand this. To quote Barney: They should have "nipped it in the bud."
